On the Interaction of Adherent Cells with Thermoresponsive Polymer Coatings [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers, 2014
Thermoresponsive polymer coatings allow the control of adhesion of cells on synthetic substrates. In particular, decreasing the temperature below the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the polymer triggers the non-invasive detachment of cells from their cultivation substrate.
